Creates an enormous, clickable roast porcine, complete with trimmings. Need to click it and stay stationary for 10 sec to get the buff.

Looks a lot like the roast piggy on Moroes' dining table in Kara.

Server's not stable enough atm to form a raid group to see if it's clickable by party-only or raid-wide.

"Dinner Impossible", it looks like reference to "Mission Impossible"

Comment by Yuksu93

it'd be cool if it was on a small table a bit like the mages refreshment table

Comment by brionl

Even if it is raid-wide, I'm going to assume it wears off the first time you die, and it doesn't stick around for the whole match.

So don't worry Mages, there will still be a market for your little bikkies.

Hmmm... That's too bad. Guess it means we still have to grovel to indifferent mages in BGs.

You would think that since Blizz is adjusting buffs so a raid isn't beholden to a particular class (i.e. Rampage/LotP, Fort/Blood pact), they might allow cooks to throw this out with the same benefits as the mage table.

But we all know that mages are the kings of the QQ... lol

The wording of the achievement says "Present a Great Feast" So if i were to take a stab in the dark i would say you'll complete the achieement simply by making the feast available not based on if X number of players click it or not.

Comment by DoctorHat

But where do you learn the recipe to make this!

NORTHREND!

Comment by Neopolis

It may seem like he has an apple in his mouth, but there are no apples in this recipe. Therefore, I conclude, the pig has a chunk o' mammoth in his mouth.

Comment by rb4havoc

Just like Conjure refreshment summons a table that only lasts for 3 minutes, the feast as well only lasts for 3 minutes, so plan accordingly :D

Comment by fadeaway

I invited a level 36 mage to my party in Stormwind and dropped one of these, he was able to click it and get the full buff. You need to be lvl 70 to drop the Great Feast, but it seems there's no level restrictions on eating it for the buff.. (cough twinks cough)

Comment by spleenseer

If you need large numbers of this feast for some reason, such as for a raid or the achievement, a great place to farm the mammoth and worm meat is from the Valley of Ancient Winters, located in Storm Peaks between Brunnhildar and Dun Niffelem. Keep in mind you'll need to have finished the quest chain leading up to neutral with Sons of Hodir before mammoths and worms will appear in the large numbers I'm referring to.

I haven't yet found a great place for shoveltusk and chilled meat.

Comment by Feiron

Confirmed: This item is accessable by any member of a raid group regardless whether or not they are in the same group as you.

Comment by Zippythepickle

Ok, where can I learn it? The trainer I went to can't teach anymore, is it a drop?

Oh, that makes more sense, Ok, thanks :)

Comment by warcanon

This food might be changed so just for some history I post this: As of patch 3.0.3. Great Feast Binds when picked up. Requires Level 70 Use: Set out a great feast that will feed your party! Restores 15000 health and 12960 mana over 30 sec. If you spend at least 10 seconds eating you will become well fed and gain 60 Attack Power, 35 Spell Power and 30 Stamina for 1.00 hour.

Comment by Vefantur

ALL feasts are BoP at the moment, so dont be dumb like me and try to have a friend of yours make you some.

Comment by BetrayerOfGod

How many charges has the feast?Would be nice if i could carry a giant roasted pork in my inventory all the time...

Comment by Vefantur

all of the feasts just have 1 charge like all other food unfortunately, but it can feed a 40 man raid.... so it makes up for the lack of charges :)

Comment by emcee

Currently does not give RANGED AP on 3.0.3 live

Comment by DaerkAngel69

I would like to ask a few questions to hopefully clarify this my confusion. Mats on my server are kind of expensive, so I'm trying to figure this out without having to make it first ^_^ Thanks for your time!

Questions:

The "Great Feast" or "Feast", how many times can I click the piggie to receive the item? I understand the pig will only last for a duration of 3 minutes. Example: if I loot the pig, then use the food, can I loot it again to get a second item?

Does it give me a stack like the mage tables do? Or am I only allowed to loot one from the mob at a time. Kinda a repeat of part of the last question. I'm sorry!

Is it a conjured item where if I log off after 15 minutes it will disappear? Or will it be available at a later time.

Can you trade the food to give it to a buddy who just missed the despawn of the piggie?

Comment by Yuksu93

what annoys me is when i set out this lovely feast made by me with all my sweat and toil (on my fingers mostly) people in my groups and raids refuse to eat it, breaks my heart... *sob*

Comment by Myzou

From MMO-Champion:

Amount of Chilled Meat required to craft Great Feast reduced from 4 to 2.

Comment by FurySpec

DearkAngel asked:

"Can you trade the food to give it to a buddy who just missed the despawn of the piggie?"

Short answer, no. As Nostalgicism said, it's not like Mage food, where clicking gives you Mana Biscuits that you can carry around. Instead, clicking starts your "eating/drinking" routine, so you regenerate health and mana, and after ten seconds you get the Well Fed buff, which lasts 60 minutes.

The Feast will stick around for about three minutes, so I wouldn't present one while my teammates are doing a corpse run; if they're alive but just in another room, they should be able to catch up before the pig vanishes. The Feast is soulbound to the cook, so the cook has to be in your party/raid at the time the Feast is served.

Similar items:Dalaran Clam Chowder is provides a similar buff for solo adventurers. Clams can be farmed at any Murloc village in Northrend. This dish is freely tradeable.Fish Feast (Introduced in 3.0.8) is the next step up, providing an even stronger buff for your party or raid. But it's not cheap: the recipe costs five Dalaran Cooking Awards, each Fish Feast requires four Northern Spices per Feast and requires Cooking 450.

Comment by Hedgehog661

By the way these do stack in lots of 20.

Comment by Hedgehog661

Now shows "Great Feast"

Comment by syberghost

Since it's round and that size, I think we can venture as guess as to WHAT chunk of the mammoth is involved.

Comment by hamtylerhogg

Yea, theres also an orange cut in half sitting on the edge of this.

Also... who REALLY know's what chilled meat is?Think about it... almost every beast in northrend drops it...What do they all have in common.....

Comment by hamtylerhogg

If I set this down out of combat, can I use it during combat, I know health regen cuts down to 0 during combat (unless ur a troll) but would it work for at least mana?

Comment by lildave151

A couple guildies have come to call them Poose. They couldn't decide if they more resembled a pig or a moose and decided to go with both. They sure look a bit like a pig, sound like a pig, but very moose-like as well.

Comment by murraysdaddy

actually its a nod to a show on TV Food Network...by the same name...not the movie...pleez don't post garbage.

Farm Guide for Great Feast

The Great Feast is an extremely effective and helpful method for raid wide buff food, second only to Fish Feast as far as raid food quality is concerned. I'm writing this little walkthrough/guide pretty much because I'm getting the mats to make 20 for raid night and I don't see a comprehensive farming guide.

Also, if you are a skinner you will love getting the ingredients for this feast. I usually get between 60-100 Borean Leather each time I farm for 20 of these.

Assumptions

You are level 80

You have some form of AoE (this will only affect timing, not the mobs or locations)

That you are farming for a full stack of feasts (in otherwords, 20 total feasts)

They are very low level so you should have no trouble blowing through them. Expect to spend about 10 minutes killing to get 20 flanks. Once you have all the flanks, turn around and go back to the Westguard flight point. From there, take a bird to either Dun Niffelem or K3 for the Worm Meat._____________________________________

Make your way to the cave where you get the oil for the Helm quest at Hodir. There are a reasonable number of mobs here with a fairly consistent repop rate. This will take longer then the Shoveltusk or Mammoth, mostly because you are single killing targets a lot of the time. I would say 15-20 minutes depending on luck and whether others are farming.

At this point you have two options: You can either head outside of the cave and kill the roaming mammoths or (and this is what I do) you can hearth to Dalaran and get on the flight path to Amber Ledge in Borean Tundra._____________________________________

I choose to go to the Tundra for three reasons. First, there are tons of Mammoth there. Second, I can blow through 40 Mammoths in the time it would take me to kill 10 in Storm Peaks and wait on the repops. Third, I can kill until I get my mammoth meat, walking North as I kill and then I get dumped right in the Basin for the Chilled Meat. Saves time.

20 Chunk o' Mammoth should take about 5 minutes._____________________________________

From here, walk right into the Basin and kill everything there. They all drop Chilled Meat and you'll get your 40 needed extremely quickly.

And there it is, you have the ingredients needed to food buff your raid. It takes me about 35-45 minutes including travel time to get all of these ingredients. In addition, I make roughly 100g in leather (more if I get some Arctic Fur) and about 15g in grey drops. Well worth the time.

As is denoted by the 20 in the bottom right of the icon. Redundant post.

Comment by TwistingPlanets

If you're horde from Dalaran fly to Apothecary Camp, Howling Fjord for shoveltusks.from there fly to K3, Storm Peaks for worm meat.then from Dalaran fly to Taunka'le, Borean Tundra for mammoth.Borean Tundra farm to Sholazar Basin.

Comment by dzzope

If aoe farming for the mats..

Chilled meat from the lion seals in HF, (very south south-west coast)Shoveltusk flank from the masses of shoveltusks just north of these

Then if you have done the SOH q chain for friendly, there are MASSES of mammoths and jourgoumar (sp) in the valley that can be slaughtered at will for the chunk o mammoth and worm meat

Much less traveling and much easier to gather mobs for the aoe farming with these sources..

Comment by crspyofarthas

According to an official blizzard poster, This item will be discontinued until further notice because of swine flu sweeping the continent of Northrend.

Comment by Greysdawn

I checked the Dal vendor and others, cant seem to find this recipe.. is it a rare one that spawns irregularly in the vendor list? Or has it cone the way of the Shoveltusk Soup where no one really knows what is going on with it? thanks!

Pork: you can't educate it.

Comment by Guanyin

I love these on my new level 1 twink, figured out there's no level requirement to sit down and eat it, so all you need is a 70+ to set it up. Poor level 15-20 players/victims... As I'm a hordie, I killed Gamon without any trouble. Fun reactions from people who saw it as well, lol.

Comment by Lavafury

Om nom nom tastes of buffs!

Comment by Tressller

For making this, i have found three of the four ingredients west of the Storm Giant base. Stotic mammoths drop both Chilled meat and Chunk'O mammoth, and the Wandering Jormungar drop the Worm me and an occasional chilled meat in the same location. The last one is from shovel tusks in Howling Fjord (may also drop chilled meat, haven't gotten any myself yet.) hope this is helpful to someone rather than getting each piece in a separate area.

Comment by TheSonicGod

Shoveltusk Flanks drop quite a bit in central Howling Fjord, whilst everything else you can get from the Jormungars and Mammoths in Storm Peaks between Brunnhildar Village and Dun Niffelem. Drop rate is about 35% for me on all of the meat.
